Brain rot
“Brain rot” is defined as “the supposed deterioration of a person’s mental or intellectual state, especially viewed as the result of overconsumption of material (now particularly online content) considered to be trivial or unchallenging. Also: something characterized as likely to lead to such deterioration”. The term gained new prominence as a term used to capture concerns about the impact of consuming excessive amounts of low-quality online content, especially on social media. The term increased in usage frequency by 230% between 2023 and 2024.
The first recorded use of “brain rot” was found in 1854 in Henry David Thoreau’s book Walden, which reports his experiences of living a simple lifestyle in the natural world. Thoreau criticizes society’s tendency to devalue complex ideas, or those that can be interpreted in multiple ways, in favour of simple ones, and sees this as indicative of a general decline in mental and intellectual effort: “While England endeavours to cure the potato rot, will not any endeavour to cure the brain-rot — which prevails so much more widely and fatally?”
The term has taken on new significance in the digital age. Initially gaining traction on social media platforms, the term is now seeing more widespread use, such as in mainstream journalism, amidst societal concerns about the negative impact of overconsuming online content.

Considering both past and present methods and approaches for language teaching, number the second column according to the first one and then mark the item that corresponds to the CORRECT sequence.
(1) Grammar-translation method.
(2) Direct method.
(3) Lexical approach.
( ) It’s a way of studying a language that approaches the language first through detailed analysis of its rules, followed by the task of translating sentences and texts into and out of the target language.
( ) It’s based on the idea that language is composed of units rather than grammatical structures. These units are words and chunks formed by collocations and fixed phrases.
( ) Instead of using analytical procedures that focus on explaining grammar rules, teachers encourage spontaneous use of the foreign language in the classroom. Grammar is taught in an inductively way.

“Seu argumento coloca a língua não como uma habilidade que se desenvolve por meio de estímulo e resposta, punição e recompensa, mas como um módulo da mente humana, geneticamente constituído. Contra o empirismo, que define o cérebro como uma tábula rasa, vazia e desestruturada no que diz respeito aos fatos mentais, o aspecto essencial da crítica de ________ é que a estrutura do cérebro é determinada a priori pelo código genético. O cérebro é programado para analisar a experiência e construir saberes com base nela. Apesar de finito, o cérebro humano pode gerar uma infinidade de sentenças por meio de regras. Em contato com o ambiente linguístico de sua comunidade, a criança adquire a língua sem esforço, mesmo sem ter sido ensinada, pois a língua é inata.” (GOMES, Maria Lúcia de Castro. Metodologia do Ensino de Língua Portuguesa; 3ª edição – editora Inter Saberes; páginas 28 e 29.)
